The ECTkeyboard is a virtual keyboard that allows individuals with upper extremity disabilities, quadriplegia, or severe physical disabilities select letters, numbers or commands on a computer by pressing a button or a pedal. This application can also be used in conjunction with eye-tracking devices, allowing users to select a symbol from a matrix by changing their sight direction. The application is fully customizable with more than 140 adjustable parameters. For example, the user can change the colors and fonts of the interface, all form positions, the speed of selection and de-selection of symbols, the size and position of the progress bar, and many others.
